What are my rights as a consumer?

We recognise that your rights under the Australian Consumer Law are important and cannot be limited or excluded. The benefits under Product Care are in addition to your rights and remedies under the Australian Consumer Law. You are not required to pay for your rights and remedies under the Australian Consumer Law. Nothing in your Product Care plan excludes, restricts or modifies your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. There may be some features in your plan which overlap with your Australian Consumer Law rights. The price you paid for your product including Product Care does not include any amount for rights or benefits to which you are entitled under the Australian Consumer Law.
